Volunteering at the museum is an opportunity to share, learn, serve, meet people, teach, and experience the stimulating environment of Mississippi’s natural resources. Volunteer commitment in time and talents is a vital contribution to the museum’s mission and operation.

All kinds of people volunteer at the museum: teens, college students, professionals, and retirees. A wide variety of volunteer positions are available – even for SCUBA Divers! Training is provided and the number of hours you commit is flexible.

To start the process of becoming a volunteer, call the museum’s volunteer coordinator, Ann Taylor, at 601.576.6000.
